| 6.1 | **Return**. Upon completion of each use of the Aircraft by Lessee during the Term, Lessee shall return the Aircraft to the Lessor by delivering the same to the
Operating Base, fully equipped with all Engines installed thereon. Upon each such delivery, the Aircraft shall be in as good operating condition as at it was in when Lessor delivered the Aircraft to Lessee, ordinary wear and tear excepted, and the
United States standard airworthiness certificate issued for the Aircraft shall be present on board the Aircraft and said standard airworthiness certificate shall be effective in accordance with FAR 21.181(a)(1). Nothing contained in this
Section 6.1 may be interpreted to require Lessee to perform any maintenance or other obligation which is the responsibility of the Lessor pursuant to Section 5.4 hereof; provided, however, that Lessee shall be obligated to ensure that
Lessor is advised of any maintenance requirement, dangerous condition, malfunction or worn part that may be discovered during each period during the Term commencing with the delivery of the Aircraft to Lessee and terminating when the Aircraft has
been redelivered to Lessor in the condition required hereunder.  |
